Acrackle comes over the radio “Code 5, battledamage left wing.” The pilot struggles to get hiscrippled F-15 aircraft on the ground safely.

The aircraft slowly descends towards a runway crowdedwith emergency vehicles. The pilot’s skill and trainingare tested to the limit as he slowly touches down andcomes to a halt amid flashing lights and sirens.

This scene is part of a recent exercise held at RobinsAFB, Georgia. Members of the 653 CLSS tested theirunique capabilities in Battle Damage Repair. The simu-lated battle damage was inflicted by a frag simulatorthat employs a C-4 explosive charge that propels a waxdisc embedded with screws, nuts and bolts into the air-craft skin, sub-structure and underlying sub-systems.

This particular damage inflicted a 10” X 8” hole in thelower wing surface and extended through the wing tothe upper wing surface. The sub-structure and sub-sys-tem damage included severed ribs and a damaged wirebundle. After a thorough assessment it was determinedthat the damaged wire bundle would be the driving fac-tor in returning the F-15 back into the ongoing battle.Under normal conditions troubleshooting the wireswould take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours. However,SrA Bobby Lynch had an ace in the hole this time. Heused the F-15 Wiring Maintenance Aid. This systemwas developed to give the technician access to a com-puterized database of the entire aircraft wiring system.Rapid access to tail-number specific wiring data is pro-vided to allow the timely and efficient repair of wiredamage. Data presented include wire function, gauge, abrief wire description, identification of the connector

and pin of each end of the wire and the access door foreach, as well as the LRU associated with the wire. Thewiring maintenance aid operates on any COTS laptopPC. This system used in conjunction with the wiringtech orders allowed SrA Lynch to complete the trou-bleshooting process in a 12-hour period. He accom-plished this while being subjected to airfield attacksinvolving nerve agent and conventional weapons.

The computerized wiring maintenance aid can also beused in more traditional maintenance operations. Inthis mode, the technician is presented a menu listing thevarious aircraft systems and asked to select the onewhich is experiencing a problem. Upon selection of asystem, the next menu presents a list of symptoms

The Defense Technical InformationCenter (DTIC) InformationAnalysis Center (IAC) Program

Management Office sponsored an IACAwareness Conference on May 16, 2000 atthe Hope Hotel, Wright-Patterson AirForce Base, Dayton, Ohio. TheSurvivability Vulnerability InformationAnalysis Center (SURVIAC) and HumanSystems Information Analysis Center(HSIAC) jointly hosted the event. Thetheme of the conference was “KeyChallenges” that need to be conquered toenable us to meet Vision 2010. The meet-ing was open to all Department of Defense(DoD) and associated industry personnel.This meeting promoted IAC Awareness tothe Wright-Patterson AFB community withan emphasis on the needs of the warfighter.

The objective of this conference was toexplore the strategic direction and theresulting requirements of information tech-nology and services necessary to supportthe DoD. The agenda featured senior-levelparticipants and provided an opportunityto discuss and share valuable insightsbetween Research and Development andthe warfighter community. Included in the

attendance of nearly 150 individuals wereDoD program managers, researchers, ana-lysts, information providers, and informa-tion users. The conference addressed theinformation needs of the warfighter, alongwith the current and future informationtechnology initiatives that will be needed tosupport those needs in the new millenni-um. The impact of changes in the policies,procedures, and technologies of informa-tion now and in the future and the subse-quent impact on DoD were also addressed.Many of the DoD IACs had exhibits in thedisplay area highlighting their capabilities,products, and services.

The senior level participants included Mr.James O'Bryon of DDOT&E/LFT whoserved as the meeting's Keynote speaker.Mr. O'Bryon addressed the challenges to

the IAC program inhis speech and cov-ered the primarymission of the IACsand their key fea-tures. He also dis-cussed what theIACs are not, as heunderscored theirrole as active centersof technical excel-lence.

Dr. Hendrick Ruckof AFRL presentedan overview of theAir Force ResearchLaboratory. Hereviewed the report-ing organization and

the various locations and laboratoriesaround the country. He also addressed theaffordability of science and technology andthe vision for the lab. He closed hisspeech with the challenge that the laborato-ry faces with its personnel and demograph-ics.

(problems) associated with that system.The technician selects the symptom beingreported and the maintenance aid presentsthe connectors and wiring data associatedwith the LRU that could be causing thesymptom. After hardware is eliminated asthe source of the problem, wire trou-bleshooting can begin.

“I wish I had this system on the flightline,”said SrA Lynch after the exercise came toan end. “I hope this system is broughtonline soon. It would be a drastic improve-ment to the current method of using several

tech orders and many man hours to accom-plish the job.”

Efforts are underway to secure additionalfunding for the project that was developedfor the Air Force Research Laboratory inthe early 1990’s. This funding would beused to expand the program to include dif-ferent aircraft and to enhance the existingprogram to a more graphically oriented for-mat.

SURVIAC will once again host aSurvivability Analysis Workshop on 25-29September 2000 at Wright-Patterson AirForce Base, Ohio. This workshop willfocus on the needs of the analyst as well as“how-to-do-it” analysis, stringing together avariety of models, data sources, and analyticjudgement into a comprehensive survivabil-ity analysis.

For the first time,this workshop willfeature ProfessorRobert E. Ball.Professor Ball liter-ally wrote the bookon aircraft surviv-ability. He has longtaught a separateshort course on air-craft survivability atthe Naval

Postgraduate School in Monterey,California. In his course he covers the fun-damentals of survivability theory, threateffects, and a variety of survivability designtechniques - both to reduce aircraft suscep-tibility - or probability of getting hit and toreduce aircraft vulnerability - or the proba-bility of being shot down if the aircraftbecomes hit. In the past, the SURVIACworkshop attempted to complementProfessor Ball’s course by focusing primari-ly on the specifics of models typically usedin survivability analysis. In September forthe first time we will combine key featuresof both courses.

On the first day of the workshop ProfessorBall will present his excellent introductionto the aircraft survivability discipline. Hewill also cover mission, threats and threateffects, and preview the survivability assess-ment. On later days the workshop willprogress through all elements of a samplesurvivability analysis. We will discuss eachpart of a comprehensive survivability analy-

sis including vulnerability, susceptibility,engagement, mission, and campaign analy-sis. At each step in the analysis we willpresent information on the typical modelsused, their respective assumptions, limita-tions, and typical results. We will discussavailable data sources and resources, andagencies to assist you with further trainingas needed. We will point out commonproblems that you may encounter. We willalso highlight tricks of the trade or smallhelper programs to assist you in reformat-ting data, graphically display data andresults, and to maintain a sanity check asyou progress through a typical analysis.

Who should attend this workshop? Mid-level managers from government andindustry who supervise studies entailingsurvivability analysis techniques; projectand task managers who need a betterunderstanding of what analysis capabilitiesare available; and Government and industryengineers, analysts, and programmers whofurnish simulation input will find thiscourse helpful in future decision processes.

This workshop is open to U.S.Government organizations and their con-tractors. There is a registration fee of $400for all attendees. Payment must accompa-ny registration. The fee can be paid byPurchase Order, check, and credit card(Visa, MasterCard, and American Expressonly). Government attendees may submitDD Form 1556. Hotel arrangements andrelated matters are the responsibility ofeach registrant. A listing of local hotels andarea maps will be sent as part of your con-firmation package.

Dry bay fires have historically beencredited with causing the majorityof combat aircraft losses. As a

result, they are often the focus of live firetests, vulnerability assessment studies, andaircraft design efforts. To assist in thesediverse efforts, the WINFIRE model wasspecifically designed as a tool to examinefire ignition and sustainment over a widerange of conditions. The results can thenbe applied directly for live fire test predic-tions, test planning, post-test analyses, vul-nerability estimates (i.e., probability of killgiven a hit, Pk/h), and design guidelines.The simulation primarily relies on basicphysical principles, which are supplement-ed by empirical data as needed. AlthoughWINFIRE was designed principally foraircraft studies, efforts are underway toadapt the tool’s methodology for use inground vehicle and ship applications.

WINFIRE simulates the events occurringduring the penetration of a single threatthrough an aircraft dry bay and into a liq-uid-filled container, either a tank or a line.The model’s primary output is the proba-bility of fluid ignition and fire sustainmentand a time history of temperature andpressure given ignition within threeregions of the dry bay. The model is PC-based and queries the user for specificinformation about the conditions to beanalyzed. No off-line computations by theuser are required; the model contains pre-determined threat, fluid, and target materi-al databases encompassing a wide range ofconditions of interest.

WINFIRE has been developed to allowthe user to examine a broad range ofthreats, fluids, target configurations, envi-ronmental conditions, and impact condi-tions:

Threat Type: WINFIRE 2.0 simulates igni-tion by either a ballistic threat or an electri-cal spark. Three types of ballistic threatscan be simulated: armor-piercing incendi-

ary (API) projectiles, warhead fragments,and high-explosive incendiary (HEI) pro-jectiles. Four Soviet API projectiles(7.62mm, 12.7mm, 14.5mm, or 23mm) canbe simulated and are contained in theWINFIRE database. In addition, fourtypes of incendiary functions (complete,partial, slow burn, or delayed) can be eval-uated. For fragment threats, any fragmentweight of interest can be specified. ThreeSoviet HEI projectiles (14.5mm, 23mm, or30mm) can be evaluated. For the 23mm,either the A-23 or MG-25 fuze can beselected.

Flammable Liquids: The user can select oneof three fuels (JP-4, JP-5, or JP-8) or oneof two military hydraulic fluids (MIL-H-5606 or MIL-H-83282).

Liquid Container Description: WINFIRE 2.0can simulate a fuel tank, a fuel line, or ahydraulic fluid line. For each containertype, the model requires various descrip-tors such as fuel level and volume, tankmaterial, and line diameter and pressure.

Dry Bay Description: WINFIRE 2.0 requiresthe user to describe the dry bay includingdimensions; material; ventilation air veloci-ty and hole size; and the number, size, andlocation of structural barriers present.

Environmental Conditions: Environmentalconditions required include fluid andambient air temperature, ullage pressure,aircraft velocity, and encounter altitude.

Impact Conditions: WINFIRE requires adescription of the impact conditionsincluding threat impact velocity, threatapproach direction, and dry bay surfaceimpact location.

WINFIRE developments are continuingwith the addition of a 3-D simulation ofbuoyancy, diffusion, and viscous effects.This Flow Field version will employ aninnovative dual-grid system to minimizerun times. One grid simulates convectionthat operates over long-distance scales,

while the second grid simulates diffusionover much smaller distances. The conser-vation equations of mass, species, andenergy are performed in the diffusion grid,and convective effects are superimposedinto the diffusion grid from the convectiongrid.

While the new Flow Field version of WIN-FIRE will enhance the model’s fidelity, theincreased complexity precludes simple tab-ular output from describing the tempera-ture and mass flows seen within the drybay over time. As a result, Figures 1through 4 present notional results from theFlow Field version of WINFIRE utilizingvisualization techniques. Figures 1 and 2show both the fuel vapor (upper portion ofthe figure) and temperature (lower portion)gradients within the dry bay in a plane

approximately six inches from the frontface at 0.7 and 2.0 seconds, respectively,after ignition of the liquid spray. The fuelvapor seen in the upper portion of Figure1 is the remnant from the initial fuel spray.In Figure 2, fuel vapors are observed inboth the upper portion of the bay and intwo regions of the lower portion. Thevapor in the upper portion is still leftoverfrom the initial fuel spray, while the twolower regions of vapor are a result ofvaporization of the fuel pool on the floorof the bay. The lack of any fuel vapor inthe center floor area is a result of the com-bustion taking place at this location.

The transition from spray ignition to flam-ing combustion can be seen from the tem-perature gradients in the lower portion ofFigures 1 and 2. The hot gases resulting

from the spray ignition appear in the cen-ter of the bay as a white zone at the coreof the event. The flaming combustion (i.e.,fire) appears as a red-to-white zone sur-rounding the core. Additional flamingcombustion is visible at the bottom of thebay around the airflow entering the dam-age hole and at the edges of the fuel vapor.The fire is seen spreading out from thecenter where it initiated.

Figure 3 shows a cross section of the drybay across the longitudinal axis around thelocation of the damage hole. The presenceof cold air convected through the damagehole (lower left-hand corner) where associ-ated combustion is occurring is clearlyseen. Lastly, Figure 4 shows a cross sec-tion of the fire parallel to and just abovethe floor. From this figure, the vaporizingfuel at the center of bay and the spread ofthe fire toward the edges of the bay can beobserved.

WINFIRE 2.0 beta test version is currentlyavailable from SURVIAC, and the newFlow Field version should be available laterthis year. Included on the distribution CDare the User’s Manual and the WINFIREBeta test plan in Adobe Acrobat format(PDF). The Analyst’s manual is availablein hard copy. The WINFIRE GUI willcurrently work on Windows 95/98,Windows NT 3.51, and Windows 4.0,while the standalone version (DOS inter-face) will work on these operating systemsas well as Windows 2000.

JIMM is a merger of the SimulatedWarfare Environment Generator (SWEG)and Suppressor models. Several SWEGusers (including the Joint Strike Fighter(JSF) Program Office) have transitioned toJIMM since its Oct 99 release. AsSuppressor capabilities continue to beadded as part of on-going JIMM develop-ment efforts, it is a goal that Suppressorusers will also eventually transition toJIMM. Another goal is for JIMM to beused as an initial prototype for a NextGeneration Mission Model (NGMM).JIMM is primarily used to perform bothconstructive and virtual mission-level mod-eling, but is also a mission simulation toolcapable of supporting the full acquisitionlife-cycle requirements (training, test, etc.)

HeldThe JTCG/AS Model User Meeting(JMUM) 2000 was held on 14-16 June 2000at the United States Air Force Academy inColorado Springs, Colorado. JMUM 2000was the fifth combined users meeting thatSURVIAC has executed and JTCG/AS hasfunded. The models included in theJMUM are BLUEMAX, ESAMS, RAD-GUNS, FASTGEN/COVART, AJEM,JVIEW, MIL AAPSEM II, BRAWLER,ALARM and DIME. 126 attendees partici-pated in this year's meeting.

JMUM included a general session. Thesession started with a JTCG/AS briefingand continued with the benefits of model-ing and simulation from the DefenseModeling and Simulation Office, DMSO.The Missile & Space Intelligence Center,MSIC presented a surface-to-air intelli-gence brief. This is MSIC's fifth year sup-porting this forum. Technical briefs ondifferent modeling tools and capabilitieswere also presented.

Following the general session, breakoutsessions for the models were held. Modelspecific topics were discussed during eachof these sessions. Status of the modelswas presented and future schedules werediscussed. The breakout sessions includedformal presentations and working forumsfor the users. The working groups alsoincluded Configuration Control Boardmeetings. Model deficiencies were dis-cussed and voted on for incorporation intothe model. Having the users present dur-ing the CCB discussions has proven to beinvaluable. The user can provide informa-tion that would otherwise not be availablefor discussion.

JMUM is an excellent networking event forthe SURVIAC models users. JMUM 2001is scheduled for 12-15 June 2001 at theUnited States Air Force Academy inColorado Springs, Colorado. Please markyou calendars and plan on attending!
